The size cage that you keep your boa in has very little impact on it's growth rate. The amount that you feed it, on the other hand, has a lot to do with it's growth.

The best way to find out the sex of your boa is to take it in to a vet and get it probed.. as for the size just because your boa is in a small tank it is going to keep growing, they aren't like fish it will still get to 6 or 7 feet so in the near future you are going to need a bigger tank.. best of luck if u have any other questions fell free to ask..
